US EditionTrump Administration Efforts to Shift Blame for ICE Shooting Wreak Havoc on Minnesota US Attorney’s Office
Federal investigation restricts local access to evidence in disputed ICE shooting of Renee Good, while fundraisers have raised over $570,000 for the agent, sparking protests and debate.
- On January 7th, ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot and killed Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother who left behind three children including a six-year-old, in Minneapolis.
- Ross's supporters say the vehicle threatened agents, and fundraisers framed the shooting as defensive; Ross served in the Border Patrol and now leads ICE deportation operations and FBI fugitive teams.
- More than $570,000 has been raised for Ross, with a GoFundMe exceeding $370,000, and Bill Ackman donated $10,000, supporting competing fundraisers.
- With evidence in federal hands, Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty and Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison announced an independent investigation after the FBI barred state and local agencies from reviewing key evidence.
- Amid national debate over enforcement, protests in the Twin Cities are expected to persist as President JD Vance defended the agent Thursday and local investigations could take months or years.
